Aims of Department of Engineering Mathematics are :

• To teach Mathematics in advanced level like the foreign countries
• To guide the Ph.D. thesis students in  advanced Mathematics for Ph.D. degree
• To do the academic research and development
• To enable students to utilize Mathematics in practical matters and Engineering subjects.

Currently the department offers only Ph. D. (Engineering Mathematics) degree at Yangon Technological University. The courses for this degree are :
               First semester
               1.   Applied Functional Analysis I
               2.   Partial Differential Equations
               3.   Information theory and Networks
               4.   Fluid Mechanic & Waves I
               5.   Numerical Methods and Analysis I
               Second Semester
               1.   Applied Functional Analysis II
               2.   Discrete Mathematics (Dynamic programming and  Graph theory)
               3.   Stochastic Processes and Brownian Motion
               4.   Fluid Mechanic & Waves II
               5.   Numerical Methods and Analysis

 For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Engineering Mathematics) , the Ph.D. thesis students must take the Ph.D. (preliminary course work) one year and another two years for thesis work. During the Ph. D. preliminary course,  students must attend the preliminary course works for two semesters and study five major subjects in each semester. In addition, students must do the seminar three times. Then they must take the written examination after finishing of each semester and oral examination about their reports. After the successful completion of two-semester courses, the candidates are required to submit an interim report of standard considered as being satisfactory by the course leader as part of requirements. During the Ph.D. thesis, they must study the requirements and documents for their research and then they must do the research to get the international paper. Maximum number of students accepted  for  this degree is   15 students.

Number of Ph. D. (Engineering Mathematics) students attending at present
      
                 2006 – 2007 academic year  (Plan A)  -  9 students
                                                                     (Plan B)  -  1 student
                 2007 – 2008 academic year  (Plan A)  -  9 students
